Hearing tests & hearing aids in Bo’ness
Anyone over the age of 18 can get a hearing test, and if you’re aged 55 or over, you’re entitled to a FREE hearing test and hearing healthcare check up. This is because hearing loss is largely, but not always, age related. We recommend booking a hearing test every year. You don’t need a GP or ENT referral, just fill in the form below to request an appointment with an independent audiologist at our Bo’ness hearing care practice.
If you need, or already have hearing aids, as part of your hearing consultation with our audiologist, we will explain the various types of hearing aids to you, and make recommendations based on your hearing loss, your needs and usage of the hearing solution. And because we are independent, you can choose from a full range of hearing aids from all the leading manufacturers, unlike many hearing aid providers.
Ear wax removal in Bo’ness
Earwax is good for the health of your ears and it plays a vital role in preventing infection and removing debris from the ear canal. However, some people produce more than others, making them prone to a build-up over time that can become hard and impacted, leading to irritation, hearing loss, or infection, if not removed. Our qualified audiologists at our Bo’ness practice can provide effective and safe ear wax removal for instant relief from any pain or discomfort.

If you find yourself struggling to hear conversations, especially in background noise, or frequently ask people to repeat themselves, it might be a sign of hearing loss. Hear Always offer a free hearing test to help you determine if you could benefit from hearing aids.
Our hearing tests are painless and take about 30 minutes. A registered audiologist will ask you about your hearing history and then conduct a series of tests to measure your hearing ability at different pitches. Based on the results, the audiologist will discuss your options and answer any questions you may have.
Hearing aids are a great option for many people with hearing loss. They can significantly improve your ability to hear and understand conversations, allowing you to participate more fully in life. During your consultation, our audiologist will discuss the different types of hearing aids available and help you decide if they are the right solution for you.
Hear Always offer a wide range of hearing aids to suit different types and severities of hearing loss, budgets, and lifestyles. Our hearing aids come with various features, including Bluetooth connectivity, noise reduction, and directional microphones. We will work with you to find the perfect hearing aid to meet your specific needs.

Russell Borland
Audiologist
I have worked in audiology for over 30 years. I’m passionate about providing hearing solutions to my patients to help them live life to the full, and I go out of my way to make sure they are happy. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking and spending time with friends and family. My grandchildren keep me on my toes. Weather permitting, I like to escape into my garden.
Kris Borland
Audiologist
I started my career as a police officer and, after six years, retrained to work in audiology, which I have done for nearly ten years. I am always keen to help and make a difference for my patients, helping them to improve their hearing and quality of life. I strive to ensure the consultation experience is relaxed and informative. In my spare time, I am always on the go, between attending the gym, playing football and running after my two daughters.
Beth Murgatroyd

I graduated from the University of Cape Town in 2010 and have been in private practice ever since. I am a passionate Audiologist who believes in person-centred care and continued learning. I cherish the relationships I can build with my patients and look forward to building many more. I am a devoted dog mum of two and love exploring new places with them.
Claire Wilson
Clinical Ear Care Practitioner
After working for 25 years in the optical industry and working with patients to give them the best service, I decided to change my career to audiology and wanted to provide the best care to my patients. When not working, I enjoy exploring new places with my husband, two kids and my dog Molly.
Marius Stan
Clinical Ear Care Practitioner
After my education, I worked in the restaurant industry for a Michelin Star restaurant where excellence is a standard requirement in every way. I decided on a career change and started training in audiology. I trained in ear wax removal and then qualified as a Hearing Care Assistant (HCA) before taking an audiology qualification at Queen Margaret University. I enjoy going to the gym and walking my two French Bulldogs with my partner in my spare time.
Chris Bridge
Clinical Co-Ordinator
I have worked in audiology for the last 12 years. My primary role is patient interaction with the business and liaising between patients and Audiologists. I also coordinate the availability of appointments with our optometry partners, ensuring patients are seen promptly. I care for my elderly parents, who have limited mobility. Outside work, I am a governor of the RNLI, helping fundraise for them, and I enjoy gardening.
Michael Macaulay
Clinical Ear Care Practitioner
After working in finance for 9 years, I realised it was not for me and my career move into Audiology has been the best decision I have made. I am qualified in micro-suction and irrigation ear wax removal. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters, or playing a round of golf for some peace!
